Participant Assistance

Intro & Follow-up Phone Calls

Survey participants are hesitant to give away valuable data to anyone. So initial and ongoing phone calls go a long way towards establishing trust, helping participants complete compensation surveys, and helping people understand the value the information will provide back to them.

Our US-based callers are full-time staff members who have or have been trained by team members with HR experience and understand what is needed to get the data you need.

Welcome & Follow-up Emails

In addition to phone calls, you have the option to give every participant a series of personalized and automatic, informative emails about their wage and salary survey, what it does for them, why they should take it, and how it helps their organization.

We always send out automated emails to inform participants as to where they are in the survey process, especially if the survey end date is approaching.  We can also include personalized check-in emails to make sure everything is moving smoothly.

Video Calls

We take it to the next level of assistance by providing video calls to manually guide users through their compensation data surveys, help them upload data, and walk them through example survey results so they can see the value of the system.

Survey Marketing

You can have the best wage and benefits survey in the world, but if your participants don’t understand why they need to complete the survey, how it helps them, or can’t understand the data that it provides, what good it is? Our survey marketing process enables you to help participants understand the value of the survey, complete the survey, and understand the data.

Survey Website

A website dedicated to helping survey takers understand why these questions are important, giving them a centralized place to login, and having a place to ask questions can help build your community and trust so you can ask targeted questions and get the compensation survey data that helps everyone make the right decisions.

Email Campaigns

Before the first survey request is ever sent, we can prepare your survey takers by making sure they know what is coming and why it is important.

Our experienced staff of digital marketers and designers can ensure your participants are prepared before an important survey comes their way.

Promotional Video

Participants often don’t have the time to read extensive documents on the value of a survey that they may or may not want to take. So giving them a quick and interesting video to watch can go a long way. 

Help your participants understand the value while getting some entertainment with a survey promotional video.

Infographic

Help your participants understand the compensation survey data you collected by returning it to them not just in a web-based dashboard, but also as a comprehensive infographic that takes users through an analysis of the data in a beautiful, easy to understand format. 

*Infographic cost is based on the number of questions in the survey and may be calculated separately in some situations.
